Etan loves the school, could see him play a roll one day after JB is gone. Hell, I’d love to see him as a coach, could you imagine him sitting down at a family’s kitchen table, how could you not want your kid or yourself to play for him.
Etan isn’t a HoF coach, hasn’t seen practice, yadda, yadda, yadda.Wow.
Some powerful commentary from that article.
Jesse Edwards, Syracuse University's sophomore center, has been relegated to the end of Coach Jim Boeheim’s bench for the majority of the season. Many, including myself, have been screaming from the mountaintops: "FREE JESSE!!!!"
On many occasions over the past two years, I’ve personally messaged Jesse to offer some encouragement, telling him almost exactly what Syracuse legends Rosevelt Bouie, Coach Louis Orr, and the late Conrad McRae told me my freshman year. I wasn’t playing and Coach Boeheim was similarly telling everyone I wasn’t ready. I told Jesse that his time was going to come to make Coach Boeheim eat his words...
That's from a former player?
Indicative of an old school coach who may not understand the psychology of kids today. Despite having one of his one on the same squad. But you'll notice that he never used the language toward his own kid that he has used against some of the other players.Wow.

It's a zone, you guard an area but I get what you mean, guys in his "area" dominated
Would still love to see when they scored those points. I'm betting a majority of them came against Marek.
It’s like JBs quote about us being out rebounded by 20, considering we started 18-3 in rebounds Jesse did a hell of a job.
Matt Park threw a stat out there that teams who get outrebounded by at least 20 in games have a winning percentage of .027, meaning they win the games less than 3 percentChanneling his inner JB, I thought I heard Roy say in last night's presser; it's simple, we simply just didn't make any shots, or along those lines.
Joking aside, I wonder when was the last time we came away with a W when being crushed on the boards by such a large margin?
I don’t disagree with him, but am guessing he won’t be the next guy to get his jersey retired with those comments.

Yup and what I consider an even worse one is the followingWow.

It might not have been smart given he had to know how JB would react, but I think it was interesting nonetheless. It's just sad that JB is becoming increasingly sensitive to anyone questioning his decision-making and player comments.
He does a weekly hit on the KRock morning show. 100.9 Krock is a bro stat to the station that plays SU games, TK99.
I think this is JB's opinion about every center and is the main reason that we rarely get a top center recruit nor the good offensive center that so many of us want.
could be angling for the HC job...thats how I am taking it...hes not wrong though
I doubt that, but I wouldn’t be opposed to him as the head coach. I’d take him over any of the rest of the staff.
That’s your opinion. You don’t know he would have progressed earlier. It’s possible a light has just gone on and he’s turned a corner. Or he’s put in a ton of work in practice and with good coaching/hard work he’s improved. I was unimpressed with him earlier in the year albeit in limited mins and didn’t think he would be part of the solution. Thought he played weak and had hands of stone always getting the ball poked away. I’m glad he’s proving me wrong although he’s gotta keep doing it. Like I said in previous posts, if he can emerge and provide a steady presence at the 5 this team will be much better off this season and in the future.
You sure like to dig in. Keep shoveling. I’m sure at some point even you’ll believe this.
A swing and a miss!!! You’ll get me next time I’m sure!
